nothing, 19s bolt straight on.

There most be more golfs on A8 rims than not now surely lol

seen 2 in last few days, one was a red 5 door in wakefield, looked ok.

 

[jjoe90]

i was thinking of getting the rs8 wheels

 

[Timmay]

should have no probs whatsoever - should go straight on

 

[jjoe90]

i understand that they will go straight on but like i said will i not need to uprate the suspension or anything like that?

 

[kpowell911]

to make it look good youwill have to lower it obviously

 

[jjoe90]

right forget the whole looking good i know i will have to put lowering springs on it but for f**k sake do i need to upgrade anything like better shock absorbers better driveshafts????
